7 Things You Need to Know About Dieting

Know this: No miracle diet will banish cellulite!
Medically speaking, there is no such thing as cellulite. It's a marketing term for plain old pudge that ripples (mostly on the thighs) in varying degrees in 50-90 percent of women, regardless of clothing size or fitness level.
This clumpy fat results from fat cells stored just under the skin in honeycomb-like structures held in place by bands of connective tissue. The more fat cells stuffed into each honeycomb, the more puckered the texture. Women are more prone than men to dimply fat because our skin is thinner, we have less-even fat distribution, and we store more fat in our hips and thighs. Since cellulite is just ordinary body fat, there is no unique diet trick to remove it. The bottom line? A calorie-controlled, healthy diet plus exercise helps you lose fat throughout your body.
